Mulan has a good memory.
YouTube suggested that I watch this video while I was eating. (Okay, it hasn't yet started giving breakfast suggestions, but that's when I usually browse YouTube.)
It's a video by Drew McCoy of Genetically Modified Skeptic, who I've started watching lately. I'm impressed by Drew. He has a great attitude to discussing religion, coming across as super-nice and really emphasising being kind. In the world of religion YouTubers he stands out as the nice guy, making his videos a pleasure to watch.
Mulan happened to pass by when I was about five minutes into the video. She said, "isn't that Turek?"
I said, "who?"
"The one who [cousin] was studying for school and you commented on?"
Finally it clicked for me. Yes, Drew was discussing the co-author of a book that I wrote about last year in response to my niece's Year 13 school assignment.
I have a sad habit of forgetting names and only (sometimes) remembering ideas. But I was surprised that Mulan remembered Turek's name; I thought she hadn't been that interested in the topic. I'm very happy that she is quietly taking it in.
Mulan stayed to watch, and we laughed at Douglas Adams' well-told puddle story.
